About depthRADIUS

depthRADIUS is named after the deviantART community that it reflects and represents. Built in service of the largest and most influential community of culture creators and culture responders in the world, this on-line journal explores the depths of the arts world from fine art to the most eminently accessible community arts projects. depthRADIUS endeavors to connect artists and art enthusiasts with other artists and art appreciators from all levels of the arts community, from its most successful stars and innovators to beginners just learning their crafts. The “radius” of this journalistic conversation will extend in its boundaries into arts advocacy, cultural relevancy, education and appreciation.

Art

the artist acts like a mediumistic being who, from the labyrinth beyond time and space, seeks his way out to a clearing.

Burns Brighter

I want a trouble-maker for a lover,Blood spiller, blood drinker, a heart of flame,Who quarrels with the sky and fights with fate,Who burns like fire on the rushing sea.—From Rumi’s Kolliyaat-e Shams-e Tabrizi

True

Among those whom I like or admire, I can find no common denominator, but among those whom I love, I can: all of them make me laugh. --W. H. Auden

Do You Realize? by The Flaming Lips -- Lyrics

Do You Realize - that you have the most beautiful faceDo You Realize - we're floating in space Do You Realize - that happiness makes you cryDo You Realize - that everyone you know someday will die

And instead of saying all of your goodbyes - let them knowYou realize that life goes fastIt's hard to make the good things lastYou realize the sun doesn't go downIt's just an illusion caused by the world spinning round

Mutant Daisies

Four and a half years after the disaster at Japan's ‪Fukushima‬ nuclear power plant, strange things still are happening to the plants and animals living there. Recent years have brought reports of deformed fruit and mutant butterflies, but the latest is a remarkable photo of deformed daisies posted on Twitter, who took the photo below in Nasushiobara City, which lies about 70 miles from Fukushima. The radiation dose in the area has been classified as safe for 'medium to long-term habitation' and the Japanese government's recently decided to allow more than 7,000 residents of a town near the Fukushima plant to return home, four years after being evacuated. However, it would seem that the flowers are telling a different story.

Sam Van Aken, an artist and professor at Syracuse University, used "chip grafting" to create trees that each bear 40 different varieties of stone fruits. He states that this is a living piece of art and after watching the video, we have to agree. Also, science you are so cool.

A Second Wind for SETI

The search for extraterrestrial intelligence project, known as SETI, has been monitoring radio frequencies in outer space since 1960 in hopes of detecting communications from extraterrestrial life. The project has long been running off of private donations ever since NASA cut its funding in the 1990's, but those who keep their ears tuned to the sounds of the cosmos received great news today! SETI will receive a $100 million investment, courtesy of Russian Internet entrapment, Yuri Milner. The money will fund a 10 year project to develop new and improved technologies which will enable scientists to monitor 10 billion radio signals at once.

Pluto is Alive!

There has been much excitement about New Horizons' flyby of Pluto this week, and Pluto had one more surprise in store for scientists: It seems to be alive! The smooth, mostly crater-free surface of Pluto means that there was geologic activity recently, but there is no conventional explanation as to why a planet so far from the sun would still have the kind of internal heat source to produce this activity. Could Pluto be plotting its revenge for being downgraded to a dwarf planet?
